About Garden Club Grove

Garden Club Grove is a tranquil cold spring nestled in the lush landscapes of California. Known for its pristine waters and peaceful atmosphere, this primitive swimming hole offers a refreshing escape from crowded spots. The cool, clear water invites you to immerse yourself in nature’s calm embrace.

Getting There

Reaching Garden Club Grove is straightforward, with ample parking available just a short walk from the spring. After stopping by the Visitor Center at Burlington Campground to pick up a map, continue south on the Avenue for about two miles until you see the signs for the spring. A brief 5-minute walk from the parking area takes you down to the riverbank.

What to Expect

Here, the water remains cool and crisp, providing a soothing contrast to the warm summer days. The serene setting ensures you rarely share the spot with many visitors, allowing you to soak in silence and scenic beauty. Facilities are minimal, emphasizing the raw and authentic experience of California’s natural springs.

Tips for Visitors

Visit in summer for the most comfortable water temperatures and pleasant weather. Bring sturdy shoes for the short walk from parking to the spring and pack out all trash to preserve the site’s natural charm. Keep in mind there may be no fees or staffed services, so prepare accordingly for a self-sufficient outing.
